4 /5

- Catenas Weißwein-Flaggschiff kommt von einer kleinen Parzelle des Adrianna-Weinbergs und nimmt es locker mit der Chardonnay-Elite der neuen Welt auf
- Der Wein wurde in französischen Barriques vergoren und lagerte 14 Monate in französischen Barriques auf der Hefe
- Herausgekommen ist ein fulminanter Chardonnay auf höchstem Niveau: im Duft Zitrusfrüchte, Birnen, Mirabellen und tropische Früchte, am Gaumen zeigt er Tiefe und Komplexität
- Allergene: enthält Sulfite

<p>Catena Alta Chardonnay is a remarkable white wine, with aromas and flavours of pear, apricot and lemon. <p><p>There are subtle hints of white flowers and warm, smoky notes on the finish.<p>

Deze Chardonnay Catena Alta van Catena Zapata is een Chardonnay die staat als een huis, deels van hooggelegen wijngaarden, zodat subtiliteit en fruit combineer met een volle en geconcentreerde smaak, rijpe peer en perzik, met levendige zuren. Geniet bij gerookte paling, salade met kalkoen, verse zalmzijde met dillesaus.

It was very tasty with Chinese food. I drank with my partner.
Good colour. Clearly noticeable aromas of white fruits. The wine was ok.

4/5

A special white wine for someone just as special .
A Chardonnay with a very dense colour. The Catena Alta Chardonnay shows exotic floral hints of jasmine. This 2016 is quite like the previous vintage.
We drank it with a spicy rice.

Honeyed aromas. Balanced, fine acidity.
Better decant this Catena Alta Chardonnay Mendoza from 2014, it tastes better.
